San Francisco’s Muni is set to be upgraded with 1,500 new digital signs and boosted tunnel Wi-Fi services.From late October, transit bosses will begin the first stage of a massive technology overhaul, which they say will improve service reliability, transit times and arrival-time information.The new Customer Information System project also promises better tunnel Wi-Fi and cellular signals—with more information on transfer connections to regional transit like BART and Golden Gate Transit.October’s “soft launch” will collect data on transit ridership and work out any bugs in the system, according to SF Municipal Transportation Agency board member Manny Yekutiel.Perhaps the most noticeable change to city streets will come with 700 LCD signs that will replace the orange-lettered NextBus signs at bus stops.Thea Selby, chair of SF Transit Riders, said that the new signage is a welcome upgrade.“The NextBus system that tells you when the next bus is coming is mostly nonfunctional now, and I think it makes people anxious,” Selby said. “If we could have more reliable information about when the bus is coming, that would be great.”And the project will add solar-powered signs in mostly transit-starved areas to boost trip planning and transit times for riders, the transportation agency said.“I’m really excited about those,” Yekutiel said. So far, 411 new signs have been installed throughout the city, and 264 bus stops using the old NextBus signs are being upgraded with 4G modems.Alongside signage upgrades, the agency plans to launch a new mobile app in February 2023, the app will include a

Muni rider and perpetual student Angela helped Routesy developer Steven beta-test the newest version of his app. Here’s her review:As a longtime SF public transportation rider, one of the websites I visit the most wheatear it be on my phone or my laptop, is NextBus.com. For the most part, NextBus does what it’s supposed to do, and if you’ve visited their website on your smartphone, you know that it’s visually bare and very basic. There are no maps or bookmarks. Every now and again, I would use the free Routesy app. But the reason I don’t rely on the free Routesy app often is that the app would crash on me and was just too unreliable.Muni Diaries was looking for testers to play with a beta version of the new Routesy app. I volunteered and have been using the new app for a few weeks, mainly to look-up Muni schedules. I have to say, I like the new and improved Routesy. My first impression: this is a whole new app compared to the free Routesy I’m familiar with. They’ve updated their icon, an homage to the old Muni FastPass (RIP) and added two new transit schedules: Caltrain and AC Transit.I initially had some issues with the GPS map feature after installing the app, i.e., it didn’t seem to know where I was. But this was fixed by closing and re-launching the app. I think this was a fluke because the GPS has been accurate eversince. As for the app crashing, well, it happened twice, but that’s it. I don’t know if this was due to my phone having too many apps running or AT&T’s notoriously bad service. My guess: it’s a little bit of both.One of the first things I noticed with the new Routesy is the GUI. It’s much better compared to the old version. The list of Muni lines is much easier to see and read. The new app now gives you a list of Muni bus/metro lines with a drop-down menu giving you a choice of inbound or outbound route, which will then give you an arrival schedule. In the old app, I had to choose a route first, inbound or outbound, then pick the bus line to get the arrival time. This could be just a matter of preference (since it’s the same amount of steps to get the schedule), but I like the new version
